Angewandte Akzeleration Panel Diskussion mit: ARMEN AVANESSIAN, HELEN HESTER, NICK SRNICEK, CHRISTOPHER THOMAS

I can’t exactly read what the discussion is about because its in German but hey, looks like a familiar mix of people.

Angesichts des Klimawandels, zunehmender kultureller Homogenisierung, wachsender globaler Ungleichheit und der manifesten Indifferenz der Märkte gegenüber diesen Entwicklungen können selbst die hartgesottensten Verfechter des Neoliberalismus nicht mehr ernsthaft behaupten, der Kapitalismus sei das probate Vehikel des allgemeinen gesellschaftlichen Fortschritts oder gar dessen conditio sine qua non.

Weite Teile der politischen Linken neigen in Anbetracht dieser Situation jedoch zu einem Blick zurück (Verzweiflung scheint heute die dominante Gefühlslage). Wie aber könnte demgegenüber aber ein tatsächlich progressives Denken und Handeln aussehen, das nicht bloß überkommenen Autoritäten, Ideologien oder Institutionen verhaftet ist? Für den Akzelerationismus ist die Annahme entscheidend, dass wir am Beginn eines politischen Projekts stehen, und eben nicht am düsteren Endpunkt der Geschichte. Nur so lässt sich der um sich greifenden sozialen Depression und dem ständigen Herunterschrauben der Erwartungen an die Zukunft etwas entgegensetzen.

Now that immaterial and affective labour seem to be waning as subjects for art, a fascination with the radical contingency of the material world has grown to take their place. Through close readings of the speculative realist philosophy that so inspires contemporary aesthetics, Svenja Bromberg pinpoints the anti-politics inherent in this turn

Thank you, Carla! Great read
